HOMEMADE LUMPIA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the filling: Heat the oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat.
• Add the onion, garlic, ginger, and carrot. Cook for 4 minutes, or until the onion is slightly translucent.
• Add the ground pork and cook for about 6 minutes, or until cooked through.
• Add the water chestnuts, salt, pepper, and soy sauce. Stir for 2 minutes, then mix in the green onion and cilantro. Remove the pan from the heat and let cool.
• Heat about an inch (2 cm) of canola oil in a deep, medium frying pan until it reaches 300°F (150°C).
• Lay out one lumpia wrapper in a diamond shape and spoon 2 tablespoons of filling at the bottom of the wrapper, leaving about an inch and a half (3 cm) of space from the bottom point.
• Fold the bottom point over the filling, then fold in the edges to create an envelope shape. Roll the wrapper toward the top point. Brush the top point with egg wash and finish the roll to seal the end.
• Carefully place four to five lumpia at a time in the hot oil. Frying on each side for 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown. Note: If the lumpia are cooking too fast or burning, reduce the heat.
• Remove the lumpia from the oil and drain on a wire rack or paper towels.
• Sprinkle with a garnish of cilantro and serve with sweet chili dipping sauce. Optional: Cut lumpia in half.
• Enjoy!

BAKED LUMPIA

Steps:

• 1. Partially cook ground pork in a skillet and drain off any fat. Let cool.
• 2. Combine everything except the eggs, wrappers and oil in a large bowl, and mix together with your hands. After everything is mixed together, cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least an hour or as much as 24 hours before making the rolls.
• 3. Open the lumpia wrappers and cut in half to form rectangular strips.
• 4. Carefully peel the wrappers apart and place about a tablespoon of filling on each one. Roll them up into little tubes and seal the edges by dipping a finger into the eggs and then running it along the seam of the wrapper.
• 5. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silpat.
• 6. Brush the rolls lightly with oil and then place in the oven. Turn the rolls over after 10 minutes cooking and bake about 5 minutes more, or until they are golden brown.
• 7. Serve with sweet and sour dipping sauce of your choice.

FILIPINO LUMPIA WRAPPERS

Steps:

• Mix until smooth.
• Lightly grease heated pan.
• Brush mix in heated pan.
• Lift carefully when dough begins to come away from pan.
• And set on cooling rack.
• Wrappers should be thin enough to be cooked on one side.
• You can also use a crepe pan to make this easier.

TRADITIONAL FILIPINO LUMPIA

Steps:

• Place a wok or large skillet over high heat, and pour in 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Cook pork, stirring frequently, until no pink is showing. Remove pork from pan and set aside. Drain grease from pan, leaving a thin coating. Cook garlic and onion in the same pan for 2 minutes. Stir in the cooked pork, carrots, green onions, and cabbage. Season with pepper, salt, garlic powder, and soy sauce. Remove from heat, and set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Place three heaping tablespoons of the filling diagonally near one corner of each wrapper, leaving a 1 1/2 inch space at both ends. Fold the side along the length of the filling over the filling, tuck in both ends, and roll neatly. Keep the roll tight as you assemble. Moisten the other side of the wrapper with water to seal the edge. Cover the rolls with plastic wrap to retain moisture.
• Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat, add oil to 1/2 inch depth, and heat for 5 minutes. Slide 3 or 4 lumpia into the oil. Fry the rolls for 1 to 2 minutes, until all sides are golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.

FRESH LUMPIA WRAPPERS

Steps:

• 1. Whisk together the flour, egg, and 1 cup water until very smooth.
• 2. Heat an 8- or 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. When a drop of water skitters across the surface before evaporating, add a little oil-just a teaspoon or so. Ladle about 2 tablespoons of the batter into the skillet and swirl it around so that it forms a thin layer on the bottom of the pan. Pour the excess batter back in the bowl.
• 3. When the wrapper is just cooked through and the edges lift away from the pan, remove it carefully (you need not turn it over). Repeat with the remaining batter. If you like, keep the wrappers warm, covered, in a 200°F oven, for up to an hour before filling and serving.

LUMPIA

Steps:

• 1. Fry the ground pork with the minced garlic.
• 2. When well done remove from frying pan and let cool.
• 3. The recipe called for 1/2 regular onion and 1/2 green onion but I preferred to use all green onion so that was 1 cup of green onion for my recipe.
• 4. mince the carrots and cabbage.
• 5. mix the veggies in with the cooked pork.
• 6. add salt, pepper, garlic powder and shoyu sauce and combine with the pork and veggies
• 7. Put all back in the frying pan with a little oil and cook for a few minutes to slightly cook the veggies.
• 8. take the filling out of the frying pan and into a bowl to cool.
• 9. When cooled off get your egg roll wrappers out and place the filling on the eggroll wrapper. Run the edges of the egg roll wrapper with the beaten egg to seal when the lumpia is rolled. ( I used just plain water instead of beaten egg for the sealer) Works just as well to me as the beaten egg.
• 10. When you get all of the lumpia rolled. Get your wok or frying pan heated up to cook and cook both sides until golden brown.
• 11. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
• 12. NOTE: Because this makes alot of lumpia I only cooked enough for our meal and the rest I wrapped each one in saran wrap and put in freezer bags for other meals.
